Slow-Light dynamics from electromagnetically-induced-transparency spectra. Physical Review A 79, no. 5: 053833. doi:10.1103/physreva.79.053833.1050-2947http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:27266715We show how slow-light pulse delays in realistic electromagnetically-induced-transparency (EIT) media can be determined directly from static transmission spectra. Using only the measured EIT linewidth and off-resonant transmission, the absolute delay of a slow-light pulse in an optically thick, power-broadened medium can be simply and accurately determined, while capturing more complex optical pumping behavior.en-USJournal Article2016-04-0220092016-06-0710.1103/physreva.79.053833
